@ jamp huru davidsfarm and other in this region pls i need your input. How old are your birds and what % are you getting. bros ur birds are doing well considering the harsh weather in abuja. Add vitamime C to their water. Very soon they wil improve as the raining season is around d corner. |

samuel25: @eggcelent, farmtech, jamp and omotititi. pls what is ur take on this. give us more clarification. to make one ton(40 bags) you need six bags of maize(100kg) and 16bags of the concentrate. |

omotititi: @Tunecvic.....Please start your day old chicks well by feeding them quality feed like topfeed. it will help them to grow well and be healthy. We all play around local feed but it is from grower's stage to when they start laying.The foundation at that tnder stage is very critical...
Welldone to Jamp,FNK,Obnelly and all those who have kept the thread alive. We are with you guys and our farms are also doing very well.
We bless God. welcome back oga Omoti. we miss you here especially your contribution. hope your farm is doing great. |

davidzfarm18: a wise man has said when you stopped learning you start dieing. I paid a visit to a vet and she told me that to hey optimal result from fowl pox vaccine. the birds weight should be more than .5 kg. she equally emphasized the of attaining the right weight before switching to grower as against the conventional 8 wks bros I dont know about the time for fowl pox. It is good for the birds to attain d right body weight before swtiching. The truth is that those body weights u see on paper are not obtainable. They are body weights attained under normal conditions like temp, humidity, water quality, light intensity etc. Do we observe those conditions? The answer is NO. |

Dis heat period is dealing with abuja farmers. The weather is hot . There is drop in production with drop in egg size too.Also many farms are experiencing high mortality. I can wait for this heat period to pass. ** I will install AC to help regulate d temp**lol  |

How long will you suggest i hold on before pressing the stop button on them. dont press the stop button. keep moving. everything is experience. if by 27wks u are not getting 50% production, please sell and restock |

rubris4u: @sprintson,each unit/basket has 5cells. The mixing ratio now is 50:50,layers:growers. I pack their litter every 2days. Thanks all things being equal they will lay soon. i guess it the stress. give them amino total |
Agriculture › Re: Advise Pls! 7birds Laying At 23wks by jamp: 7:58am On Mar 04, 2015 |
my dear be patient with them. they will soon start. increase the number of day light to 16hours. also change their feed to layers mash. if u are close to any clinic, take some there for test to see if there is any vaccine failure. also the stress of transportation and caging can also contribute.
there are other factors that can affect sexual maturity of the birds: source of doc, management practice during brooding and rearing. |

Agriculture › Re: Storage Of Farm Produce by jamp(op): 5:17pm On Mar 02, 2015 |
one major reason why i opened this thread is to see how we can store our farm produce.
in Nigeria we have bad storage culture. our farm produce do not last long. they are consumed immediately without the future in mind. the governement need to fund research projects that will help in achieveing this. even individuals and non govt organisation can take up this task without waiting for govt. we shall get there |

brownskingirl: I gave dem 1 n 1/2 bag daily. But I don't understand d, 16hours of light. By 16hrs I mean number of light daily both natural anf artificial. Let's assume ur day break at 6am. The natural light will last from 6am-6pm ie 12hrs, u need to provide additional light using generator/phcn from 6pm to 10pm. The extra light helps to stimulate the birds sexual organs. Once you start giving them extra light u must sustain it else there will be significant drop if u stop. also the birds are doing about 60% @ 26wks which is not bad. Give them time they will all pick up. |

Agriculture › Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by jamp: 10:47am On Mar 01, 2015 |
Oga fnk, I was an undergraduate when I did that. It was during one long strike by ASUU. I decided to experiment that. I had about 2-3 layers with one big Cockerell. I gave them growers feed.They mated, produced eggs and I took the eggs to local chicken for hatching. After 21 days I got big doc, bigger than the normal doc.
They grew very well without the normal vaccine we give thess days.
after the strike was called off. I went back to school leaving the birds in d hands of my dad and 2 boys staying with us.
I lost them due to the carelessness of the boys. Their feed finished and they gave them finisher meant for the big broilers we had. Then it was the pelleted feed(i beleive the feed chooked them).Before my dad returned the chicks were already dead. It pained me but I know the experiment was a success. |
